You will learn the essential principles to understand how to live and build with deep ecology awareness. From micro to macro systems, carbon foot prints, simple living and living small, you will gain knowledge of the how, what and why we need to make a personal commitment to living lightly and with a deeper respect for what the Earth truly needs to regain her balance.

Why learn this?Our world is changing faster than we can truly adjust our lifestyles to. We need to understand how to change, why and the most efficient direction to shift our home and the way we live as quickly as possible. Learn from the expertise of an Eco-Architect who has been practicing this journey herself to re-claim a way of living that is in a healthier balance with the Earth.

The soma earth Natural Building Design courses are all designed to accommodate whether you live in the city, country or suburbs, or are planning a shift from one to the other. They also are adaptable to new or retrofit building choices.

Offered by Eco-Architect, Ingrid Cryns, these teachings encompass the deep Earth Wisdom that Ingrid has cultivated in bridging the worlds of Natural Building with Earth Soul Healing. The first in a series of 7 areas of knowledge, this workshop is offered as an Introduction to the general principles of Natural Living Building and is also an introduction to the soma earth Mentorship Program.

Although each course builds somewhat on the preceding one, there are no pre-requisites required to enter any of them. You can take each course independently or incorporate it as part of the Mentorship Program which you may enter at any time during the year, if space is available. Courses will repeat yearly as needed. Priority acceptance into workshops is given to Mentorship Program participants.
